Adding this in for anyone that stops by. The arrow is one of, if not the only, aftermarket exhaust that does not neuter the low end on these bikes. Straight pipes from SC, Yosh, Leo, Akra all loose power in the mid, and some in the top end as well. A tune might bring it back in line, but at that point you are looking at dyno time and cost starts to get out of hand.
Thinking of swapping my akra system for an aro one. Bike came with both systems, the akra is mind numbingly loud. Sounds amazing when I’m in the mood, not so great when I’m not.
This is a really nice in depth review/sound test. Especially awesome as you wait for the delivery of your new bike (with arrows!) and are bouncing with excitement haha
Great bike m8. I got great deal for black one with Arrow for 9900 euro. With SC slip on price was 10 800 euro. I dont want to disturb people on the streets and in my neighbourhood :). I am waiting for mine to arrive sometime next week.( today is 27-06-20 ) 2019 model with 3000km on odometer. Stay safe guys !
You are right... you NEED to start it without the can... it’s like a law or something I believe. I think the Arrow sounds great.. I have one on my 13 ST3 and love it.. not crazy loud but loud enough and a great tone to it.. plus it’s as ‘factory’ as much as an aftermarket exhaust can be.
I’ve heard a lot of suggestions for my triple but I’ve really just wanted to get the arrow. I test rode an R with it and fell in love, my ‘18 triple S is stock though. I’m hoping one comes up for sale either now or in the spring. It sounds great.
I have the same bike and can, no baffle.. I agree with what you say. Personally I don’t like the induction whistle and therefore might prefer the SC Projects note to this, but I’m guessing that one is more obnoxious too.. The arrow is not quiet by any stretch though, it will turn heads by people standing way ahead in front of you, so they know it’s coming..
RUclips has changed its notification settings yet again, so I'm a couple of weeks late to the party. :( The setup sounds good! And we even got a split-second 86 cameo while you were shaking that exhaust around. Hope you're enjoying life and doing all the things!
I swear RUclips can't decide what they want with notifications. The 86 will be in some more content soon, planning a track day excursion next month. Less time to film with the new job but still playing lots when I can. Cheers!
Can I add a slip-on with a bend pipe on a bike with this configuration (arrow) without any additional changes? Some people said that I need a full system exhaust to make that happen, I didn’t wanna buy the headers
I have the same bike, same exhaust, any tips on breaking that tac weld? I have not been able to get mine out and did not want to risk damage. With the baffle in it sounds almost exactly like the stock exhaust. I have been looking at the SC Project as well but that may be too loud for me.
I had to use a really good torx bit, put some weight into it so it wouldn't slip and just cranked on it. It broke free without too much trouble. To be honest I haven't tried it with the baffle and perhaps I should just to know. One thing I will say the video doesn't capture the bass of the exhaust as well as it could. It's got some nice volume and tone in the lower RPM. I wouldn't want anything louder on a street bike personally.
So far so good, I've had one small oil leak from the stator cover where the wire goes in (easily fixed with some black RTV) and that is basically it. I have just under 7000 miles on the bike now and I have been commuting on it the last 10 months every day.
Hi mate I agree that stock sound it almost perfect. I just bought an arrow exhaust. I got a deal of a life time for an arrow(210USD) I'm from Brazil and due to high taxes the price is 1500USD. I was at the oficial dealer and they werent able to sell it since they lauched the 2021 model. I asked to hold it for one day and got straight home for research. Your video helped me a lot, thanks ! The sound is great, slightly more bass driven and sliglty louder than stock and the sound at mild throttle acceleration from 3K to 4k RPM is just AMAZING. I like it but it could be slighly louder and slightly more bass driven, just a little bit. Unfortunately I bought the UK version I guess, it says E9 - 9600562 I did not took out the sound damper. is it possible in the UK version? will it make it louder ? Is there any other way to make is slightly louder? (i'm not looking for any super high volume like SC, akrapovic and so on)
For some reason, mine sounds really forced compared to mine... So if I m like in 3rd gear going about 40-45 MPH it sounds like it is begging to be shifted up... It doesn't sound as smooth as yours for some reason.... Idk if it is just the video, but did you leave the stock tunning or did you download another tunning? I know the Guys at Triumph said they downloaded another tunning.... But for some reason, I don't like how it feels and sounds... sounds like it wants to let more out... like if it is suffocated a bit.
I just performed the 12 minute tune by leaving the bike idle for 20-25 minutes from a cold start. Do you have your baffle in? Mine is pretty loud compared to what most people reported.
Hey ! glad you got exhaust. I got it with mine when i bought bike back in June. Its definitely on the quiet side and I;ve grown to appreciate that its more mature sounding so to speak.( I'm 49!) So I am about to put may first set of tires as the stock Supercorsas are toast ( 4k). I went with Diablo Rosso 2 for better all around versatility and logevity which they are known for compared to the updates Diablo Rosso 3 that don't last as long from the reviews I've seen. So I hope to get 5-6k out of them. I ride primarily backroads( 75 % and then local rides and highway the rest.) What are you running? btw, I followed your advice and lowered the front end 5mm and it really has transformed the front end feel, I also set rear preload to 8 Threads showing( 10mm apx). Love the bike!! This bike is a long-term keeper for sure. Once paid off though I want to add an Aprilia tunou factory :)
I am running a Dunlop Q3+ tire right now. The Rosso 2 is a great tire, ridden those on track. Thinking about getting a set after I'm done with my Q3+. Great to hear the suspension tweaks helped, I have about the same pre-load in the rear shock. Regarding the Tuono, I too see one in my future garage but I don't think I could give up the Street Triple. It just does everything so darn well.
Hey man, really enjoyed the video. I have the exact same bike and the exact same arrow unit, and I'm having a huge amount of trouble removing the baffle. I got the bolt out, and it was tack welded in but took very little effort to break loose. The one part you didn't seem to film here was actually pulling the baffle tube out. I've seen lots of forums suggest that it's in there pretty tight and you have to yank it quite a bit. I've done a bit of that, but I just want to make sure there aren't any other mechanical pieces holding the baffle in before I really start reefing on it. Any suggestions?
@@TheDriversPerspective yeah on track it was fine mostly.. but one time i hit a bump at 100mph .. took a long time for the bike to right itself.. nearly lost it.. I'd look into something for sound as well.. prolly SC exhaust
I was able to remove the tack weld and screw, but the baffle won’t come out. How did you get it to come loose. 2019 Street Triple RS with the same Arrow exhaust.
4:44 I was sitting here watching you start to unscrew that bolt and the first thought that entered my mind was you were going to lose it into the exhaust and you better change the way you are holding it...and then it happened lol.

Bingo.
Another good thing about the arrow end can is that in most cases it doesn’t affect your warranty as it’s an official Triumph accessory (technically)
Best looking exhaust for the ST by far.

Just fitted the arrow to 2020 rs - everything is as just like you said in the review - perfect !!! - tnx

Hi mate do you still own this bike & any major issues yet? Does it burn oil etc?
Got mine free with the bike. Getting it installed on Tuesday.
That is the way to get one of these.
does this same exhaust go well with my triumph street triple rs cosmic yellow? please let me know. Thanks
Can I add a slip-on with a bend pipe on a bike with this configuration (arrow) without any additional changes? Some people said that I need a full system exhaust to make that happen, I didn’t wanna buy the headers
Looking to install this on my UK model bike dose the adaptation process need to be carried out or have the ecu remapped? Tia!

Sc projects for the win. Baffle out is LOUD. Baffle in is perfect.
Nice video. I’m planning to get this bike. How reliable it is so far for you ? Any issues you faced? How many miles on the odometer now ?
So far so good, I've had one small oil leak from the stator cover where the wire goes in (easily fixed with some black RTV) and that is basically it. I have just under 7000 miles on the bike now and I have been commuting on it the last 10 months every day.
Good afternoon. My friend, do you know if the Arrow exhaust of the triple 675 fits in the 765? I'm from Brasil. Forgive me my bad english.
That exhaust is not compatible with the 765.

@@TheDriversPerspective Baffle is out. Ya, yours sounds more throaty. Idk if it is just the video or mics. But I do hear a difference.
Hi, may I ask at 8.02 minutes where you place your hand below the exhaust is there a hole leaking air?
There normally always is for condensation or water to escape

i was laughing so hard when you dropped the bolt into the exhaust. 😂😂😂😂
Me too, once I got it back.
I was wondering what exhaust too go with on my 2018 street triple 👍 big help thanks.

@wizzbang54 did you get the baffle out if yes pls let me know how I am struggling a lot to take it out
+1
have you looked into any steering dampers for the bike? im looking for options..
Not really, haven't felt a need for one yet. The bike has been great on track.
@@TheDriversPerspective yeah on track it was fine mostly.. but one time i hit a bump at 100mph .. took a long time for the bike to right itself.. nearly lost it.. I'd look into something for sound as well.. prolly SC exhaust

Never mind... just got it.
@@jazz339 mine was wedged in there pretty tight. Took a lot of force to get it out the first time.

I had the thought in my head as I was talking, but then lost track of things. That was a fun 20 minutes.
@@TheDriversPerspective Yeah, not easy to be filming it, talking about it and actually working on it all at the same time.
What top box is that? Can you fit a helmet in it?
Did you remove the sound damper?
Yes, I did so immediately.
@@TheDriversPerspective i bought one but there is no way to remove the sound damper 🤦🏽♂️
@@thiagopontes5622 There is probably a weld on the nut to keep you from removing it. A Dremel will help you here.
@@TheDriversPerspective i hadn't thought of that. I Thought i didn't have the possibility to take it off. But i Will check here. Thank you, my friend!
What tail bag you have there?
This is the old Daytona tail bag. They are on close out for about $45.
Great video, so no new ECU flash needs to be done by the dealer for it?
Correct.
Did you ever remove the baffle?
Yup, I do later in the video.
@@TheDriversPerspective Whoops missed that, how did you get past the weld?
fast forwarding the baffle removal :(
What is the name of the Brand tank pad?
Tech Spec.
Dropping the bolt inside the exhaust is the very first thing that should'nt happen 😆
I wish you had a better video showing step by step directions
👍🏻👍🏻🇵🇹
I see why someone would return it.
It sounds really amazing but none the less it's ugly as all hell. Doesn't do justice to such a sexy bike.
